Abstract

I came to know Zabolotsky in the late 1920's, in Leningrad. But our acquaintance then was superficial. I ran into him in editorial offices and we had friends in common — Shvarts, Oleinikov, Kaverin — but he and I were not in any way close. In the fall of 1945, the first autumn after the war, I was on assignment in Moscow, dreamed of being released from military service, but was still in uniform. And I suddenly heard that Nikolai Alekseevich Zabolotsky had arrived in Moscow from Karaganda and was living with Nikolai Leonidovich Stepanov, unregistered and in a legally precarious status.
